An abundance of textures, fabrics and colors of life experiences and personal relationships have been fitly joined together to make me who I am today and a great choice to serve as your real estate advocate. Here are some of the highlights that you might find important or of interest:

- 12-year Real Estate Veteran with extensive continuing education courses and the Seniors Real Estate Specialist and Certified Short Sale Expert designations. Clients have been first time home buyers, seniors selling their last home, investors and buyers and sellers, move-up buyers, new doctors, those selling due to divorce, death or downsizing, and buyers and sellers needing to relocate.

- Earned a BA degree in Psychology in 1995 as a non-traditional undergraduate - at the time I had become a single Mom to my daughter and son, and I was a transfer student from West Valley Community College. I attended Stanford In Washington, earned a Haas Center for Public Service research grant and completed an Honors project through the School of Education.

- Worked in Silicon Valley at Synopsys in Marketing Communications and at Point Blank Marketing as an Advertising Account Executive and Managing Director of Point Blank Promotions. For three years I worked in Channel Marketing in the Consumer Products Division of Qualcomm in San Diego.

- Married to Mike Rhoades for over 15 years. Mom to Tawni Escudero and Scott Shoemake, Step-mom to Josh and Nathan Rhoades, mother-in-law to Johannes, Cheryl and Krissy and Grandma to Eden, Rori, Huntley, Lincoln and Holden. Three sisters, one brother with parents who were married for 62 years when Dad passed away and grateful to still have Mom who is almost 90. Proud to be an American with immigrant grandparents and a family of veterans - Dad and father-in-law in WWII and Korea, brother-in-law and cousin in Viet Nam, and stepson with a Purple Heart earned in Iraq.

- Church and community involvement are a big part of my life. I will donate a portion of my commission to my client's charity of choice. For every sale, I also make a donation to the Children's Miracle Network that directly supports UC Davis Children's Hospital where two of my grandchildren were born and so lovingly cared for in the NICU there.
